About the Author
Simbaxxx is the handle name of a woman who is active within the swinging community. Her early upbringing was anything but "alternative," for she was raised in the American Midwest, as a normal member of an ordinary middle-income, conservative family. Her father was a minister, had a traditional relationship with his only wife. Both parents were loving and supportive. Simbaxxx attended Southern Illinois University during the late 1970’s, studying interior design. At the age of 21, she became married and began raising a family. In addition, she started a career that eventually led into corporate accounting. After 20 years of her conventional and unhappy relationship, Simbaxxx secured a divorce, and began seeking a relationship based on love, and not fear; this goal lead her to her current husband and eventually to the swinging lifestyle, as well as allowing her to explore bisexuality and sexual freedom. Simbaxxx and her husband currently live in Los Angeles, where she continues to write and also develop her new company, Amorous Linens (www.amorouslinens.com), which features erotic designs for luxury bed linens.

A Must Read For All Contemplating Or In The Lifestyle
Whether in the thinking about it, just starting out or fully experienced stage of swinging, this book offers something for everyone. For those exploring the decision of entering the lifestyle or in their earliest stages of experimentation it is highly informative. Yet written with such humor as to take the intimidation factor away. For the experienced swinger it's a romp down memory lane combined with the reinforcement of things that happen to the best of us. Read it with friends! It should be mandatory reading to all male swingers as it gives supreme insight into the typically more sensitive feelings of the ladies.
A "must read" for anyone interested in the Lifestyle!
Written by a lifestyle insider, Doin One For The Team, offers insight on everything from dealing with the emotional issues of sharing one's mate, to every-day practicalities like hygiene. Simbaxxx uses her personal experience to describe how couples can learn and grow from successful swinging encounters as well as ones that are colossal failures. Written in a down-to-earth, reader-friendly style - and with a sense of humor - this is a book I would recommend to anyone who is curious about the lifestyle.
What a fun and entertaining book packed with information about Swinging!!!
I recently saw Simba on the Dr. Keith Ablow TV show a few weeks ago. She and her husband were terrific and not only represented intelligence and class for the swinging community, but inner depth and great perception. Forget the fact they both were gorgeous on the outside, but they brought refreshing insights on the taboo subject. I immediately ordered her book and was absolutely delighted with it. I have to hand it to her for putting her inner most secret thoughts out there for the masses to read.
The book is written with lighthearted humor and things you just can't imagine people would encounter. I dare anyone to flip through the pages of this book, read one page and be able to put it back down. Before I could get the book finished my husband was swiping the book so he could read it (he got tired of me giggling and laughing so much). We have been in the lifestyle for a few years and I thought we knew everything about swinging....until I read Simba's book. New and seasoned swingers will get loads of information from this entertaining book (loved the last chapter where they encountered what could have been one of the worst play dates known to swinging.....HA), but best of all the book makes you think. I could see couples not interested in swinging reading this book and it improving their relationship, because it makes couples talk about things they normally like to ignore or sweep under the rug. I'm telling everyone about this book and now just have to figure out how I can get my copy autographed by Simba - in person!!! Best to you Simba and thank you for writing this eye opening and entertaining book.
